My wife and I went to Famous Toastery bowl Monday. We were about to leave when it was 28-0 ODU. But we stayed to watch the bands at the half. We stayed the whole game and I would put that up against any other bowl game yet to be played. IMG_20231218_181311650_HDR.thumb.jpg.c2dc5be7fdef66100d3df1f3dd5fcb66.jpg

This is the only one I've watched so far, mainly because I'm a UNCC grad.

Ended up being a great game.

Being there.. unbelievable game. I wish they would do that again. I had never been to UNCC. I would go back there and like to see a game there. A neighbor that owns o a brewery,took us to UNCC -Davidson basketball game. Floor seats, I had to get loose balls. I also went to Weddington - Grimsley semi football game. I have been living a charmed life.

It's hard for me to get pumped about football recruiting simply because most of these guys, especially the linemen, are at least a year or two away from being significant contributors at the P5 level.

I quit following all recruiting about the time I graduated college. At some point in your adult life concerning yourself with the decisions of HS kids starts feeling very creepy. When I was no longer in school it just didn't feel appropriate anymore. When a hyped kid commits I'll go watch his highlight reel and that's pretty much the extent of it for me.

The ACC is definitely circling the drain. No doubt about it. FSU goes to the playoffs if their QB doesn't get hurt but there's zero chance an undefeated conference champ out of any of the other P5 conferences doesn't go to the playoffs even if their QB gets hurt. It just confirmed what everyone already knew - the ACC is the perceived weakest major football conference. It doesn't matter if you have a winning head to head record against the SEC. Perception is all that matters.

Now you have the Clemsons and FSUs sitting there thinking... damn, we might have to win the ACC to get into a 12 team field. It honestly might be hard to get an at large bud out of the ACC because the SEC is gonna be screaming to get half of the field every year.

Yeah, FSU got jobbed. Even without their starting QB, they should be in the playoffs.

I wonder if Clemson will wait to see how FSU's freedom bid goes or if they go ahead and start their own lawsuit too.

I mean, I don't really care that they got jobbed. Without their QB they definitely weren't one of the best four teams and ultimately I want to see the best possible field. I couldn't possibly care less about the ACC as a conference.

Will be interesting to see if FSU can somehow lawyer themselves out of the ACC. That GoR and monetary penalties….yowza. Better get those LiV Golf lawyers for that. 
 

Personally, I despise Free Shoes University, they are an unethical college and have been breaking rules since the rulebook was invented - so if they are able to weasel out of the thing they signed, best of luck to them.

      Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.

      Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
